LG GearBox for Optimus 4X HD [V1.2.1 with Power saver]

This application allows you to control cpu speed and number of active cores.

Features
- Help extend your battery life.

- Manually control CPU speed and active cores

- Integrated with Power saver option in system settings.
Whenever your turn on Power saver, cpu and active cores will automatically adjusted.

It uses undocumented LG API, tested on stock firmware version 10C.

No root required

Remarks
1. Try it at your own risk.
2. System instability reported with 2 active cores. (Original LG QuadGearBox)
3. The 3 cores active option does not work. I don't know why. I leave that option to test by yourself.
4. This app has been tested on rooted phone. It should work on non-root phone, need some test please.

Testing it with my unrooted phone.
Setting clock to 1100, use 2 cores.
Quadrant benchmark then drops to 28xx (before is 47xx)
So I guess this app worked.
Let's see next if this setting have effect in battery usage.

app works as it should, but i don't think that it will have a big effect in Battery usage, the Management for the cores is quite good and
quad is used not much, also the core's itself are not the big drainer's.

If we have full access and custom Rom's/Kernel's - than we can expect power savings ....

V1.2 will be more useful by Power saver trigger.

yeah, i misspelled that, underclock surely will improve, but i think reducing the cores will also give us more juice, but not so much i think,<br />
but i test the new version now <br />
<br />
thx for this!!!!

Be careful not to set clock too low.
When entering power saver mode, the phone suddenly lag heavily
